Minister Straus' Quick Departure.
Mr.. Oscar 9. Straus, the new Minister
to Turkey, is already on his way to Con-
stantnOple. 1t is not an unusual thing
for newly appointed Ministers TO linger IN
this country several weeks, and even
months, after their appointment enjoying
the honor that has been conferred upon
them and receiving the congratulations OF
their friends. Mr.. Straus' early depart
ure for his post OF duty indicates that he
is a man OF business, and that ne does not
go to COnstantinople with the idea that
he Will have nothing to do but draw his
salary. His course is in harmony with
the wishes of the President, who does not
believe in public officials drawing sala-
ries while they are enjoying themselves
away from their post OF duty. He minated
that he did not want to hurry Mr.. Straus,
but that 1t would be agreeable to the ad-
ministration If he would not delay going
longer than was absolutely necessary.
The President has shown, ever since he
has been in office, a strict regard for the
rights of the people in small as well as
great matters. The people pay the taxes
and ne does not believe that man who
draws his salary from the government
should have any more favors than one
who draws his salary from a business
firm. He wants each official, whatever
his position may be, to earn what he gets.
Although Mr.. Straus is not a citizen OF
Georgia, great interest is felt In him in this
State as a representative of the govern
ment abroad. His early youth was spent
In Georgia towns, and the foundation, of
his education was laid in Georgia's
public schools. That he will be an honor
to both Georgia and New York, as we'll
as to the nation, in his new position, there
is no reason to doubt.

The Historical Society Library.

very decided increase OF public inter-
est in the Georgia historical Society Is
visible, and the only curious thing about
1t ls that an institution, having such
splendid start as this has in its hall, liz
brary and art academy, should RENAL n
apathetic so long. There is no reason
why its library should not be twice as
large and many times as useful. VI
course, books cannot be bought without
money, and money cannot be had in such
a society from other sources than mem
bershlp; but with the right OF entrance
without fee, and an entire cost OF 50 per
annum, it is extraordinary thai the men,
bership Is not double is present number.
Still, library Of u, 900 volumes Is fine
foundation, and we trust that the authori-
ties will avail themselves OF the evident
Willingness of our people to extend it by
large and liberal measures. Savannah
can have magnificent library without
appealing to public charity or private
muniicence, and a city which prides
itself upon its refinement and culture
will not be laggard in sustaining the So
ciety in making its library the finest
within six hundred miles.

A Noble Georgian Dead

In the death of Col. John A, Stephens
the State loses valuable citizen. He
was not what is called "a prominen t
CITIZEN" but he was an honest, high
minded gentleman, and the duties allot-
ted to him were fearlessly and faithfully
discharged. AS Adjutant General under
Cows. Stephens and Mcdaniel he did
all that the limited resources at his COM
mand would allow him to do for the vol
unteer soldiery. He repeatedly appealed
to the General Assembly to take some &C.
ton looking to the better organization
and equipment of the State troops, and if
ever such step is taken 1t will doubtless
be upon the line OF his suggestions.
Col. Stephens was but 40 years old. He
was born in Hamilton, Harris county.
Very early In life he became closely at
tached to his distinguished cousin, Alex
ander Ii. Stephens, and his character
became closely assimilaJed to that of the
great commoner. Col. Stephens was
without guile. He was perfectly frank
in all his dealings with men, and there
was never any difficulty in determining
exactly what his position was on any
given question. he was devotedly at
tached TO his native State.
To him It's very name was
sacred. He believed in his States great
ness, past, present and future, and al.
though he had travelled extensively in
other States ne regarded none Of them az
the equal or Georgia. He frequently said
that it was better to be Georgia cracker
than to be the richest man that lived in
any other State.
Col. Stephens was a delightful story
teller. He was familiar with many Of
Georgia's great men, either personally or
by tradition, and his fund of reminiscent
oes and anecdotes concerning them was
inexhaustible. His friends often sug-
gested to him that he ought to write BIZ
ography OF his cousin, because no other
man, perhaps, knew the great commoner
so well. But Col. Stephens was very
modest man, and he shrauk from under
taking a task for which he considered
others better fitted.
Notwithstanding his quiet life, Col
Stephens will be sadly N Kissed. He was
one of the last OF family that made
Georgia known and respected even be-
yond the limits Of the United States He
was gentle, sympathetic and charitable,
without enemies, and true to his multi
tude OF friends. May the sod rest lightly
ABOVE him.

A Fat Lady Works Her Way to q Plat

from the Yeto YORK Il Uenin1 Sun.
Seventy-one business men of assorted age a
and varegated temperaments met one fat
woman on the stairway of the Sixth avenu e
elevated station at Fifty ninth street yester-
day, and were worsted at the hrst onset. The
fat woman began the ascent Of the stairway
on the uptown side at 5:15 p. N. She bore
two large satchels, and carried one in front
of her and the other behind her, for her enor-
nous proportions and voluminous skirts com .
pletelv filed the space from rail to rail.
When she was half way up, at 5 30 p. M. she
met the first of the seventy -one men who had
just alighted from train.
A big crowd always alights at Fifty-nin tn
street, which is in the heart of a thickly pop
ulated section, and the fat woman soon found
that she was stemming a tide OF verv impa-
tleDt men. No. was thin man. He tried
to pass her, without success. The woman
looked breathlessy down the stairway up
which she had so laboriously toiled.
II won't go back she said grimly.
There was long pause, and finally the thin
man passed the word back up the stairway.
The crowd slowly receded upward and out ON
the platform. The fat woman followed after,
and when she got up to the top she said very
politely: "Indade, ON sorry to trouble yez,
